2. Operate the temperature control dial (driver side) and raise the temperature setting to 32�C (90�F).
3. Press the OFF switch.
4. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON.
6. Press the AUTO switch.
7. Check that the temperature setting, before turning the ignition switch OFF, is stored.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 2.
NO - Check power and ground circuits for A/C auto amp. With Color Display.
2.CHECK BLOWER MOTOR SPEED
1. Operate the fan control dial. Check that the fan speed changes.
2. Check the operation for all fan speeds.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 3.
NO - Check blower motor system. With Color Display.
3.CHECK DISCHARGE AIR (MODE SWITCH AND DEF SWITCH)
1. Press the MODE switch and the DEF switch.
2. Check that the air outlets change according to each indicated air outlet by placing a hand in front of the outlets. With Color Display.

NOTE:



Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 4.
NO - Check mode door system. With Color Display.
4.CHECK INTAKE AIR



3. Listen for the intake door position change. (Slight change of blower sound can be heard.)

NOTE:



Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 5.
NO - Check intake door system. With Color Display.
5.CHECK A/C SWITCH

2. The A/C switch indicator is turned ON.
Confirm that the compressor clutch engages (sound or visual inspection).
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 6.
NO - Check magnet clutch system. With Color Display.
6.CHECK TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Operate the compressor.
2. Operate the temperature control switch (driver side) and lower the temperature setting to 18�C (60�F).
3. Check that the cool air blows from the outlets.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 7.
NO - Check for insufficient cooling. With Color Display.
7.CHECK TEMPERATURE INCREASE
1. Operate the temperature control dial (driver side) and raise the temperature setting to 32�C (90�F) after warming up the engine.
2. Check that the warm air blows from the outlets.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 8.
NO - Check for insufficient heating. With Color Display.
8.CHECK DUAL MODE FUNCTION
1. Press the DUAL mode switch, and then check that "DUAL" is shown on the display.
2. Operate the temperature control dial (driver side). Check that the discharge air temperature (driver side) changes.
3. Operate the temperature control dial (passenger side). Check that the discharge air temperature (passenger side) changes.
4. Press the DUAL mode switch, and then check that the temperature setting (driver/passenger) is unified to the driver side temperature setting.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - GO TO 9.
NO - With Color Display and perform the appropriate diagnosis.
9.CHECK AUTO MODE
1. Press the AUTO switch, and then check that "AUTO" is shown on the display.
2. Operate the temperature control dial (driver side). Check that the fan speed, outlet air or intake air changes. (The discharge air temperature or fan speed varies depending on the ambient temperature, in-vehicle temperature, and temperature setting.)
Is the inspection result normal?
YES - Inspection End
NO - With Color Display and perform the appropriate diagnosis.
